Last year, Barton had his first NFL touchdown. It was on a weird play in the backfield that was originally called as an interception, but later ruled as a fumble recovery.
Now, in week 10 of 2025, he leaves no doubt in his first year with Tennessee.
On the next drive, Justin Herbert and the Chargers offense made up for the mistake, quickly tying the game at 7-7.
